Racist ratfucker accuses Obama of being a Keynesian, even though he was born in Hawaii.

[Dude Barry]

Ah, a, oh, uh, ooh, uh, yeah, Pun intended. I got it, young people, 'cause I got a Harvard education.

[Mr. FIFY]

I still say the proof of Obama's citizenship was cemented by way of the Clintons NOT using his citizenship as a way to win the primary.

[Le Droit est Vraiment Droit]

Finaly we know where the Birther movement originated. Liberals overheard their betters talking about Obama's Keynesian beliefs raised a stink about people calling Obama and Kenyan, other people checked out what they were bitching about, and the thing grew from there when others checked into the matter and discovered his aunt mis-recollecting being in the room when he was born. Perfectly understandable now.

[LeDroit est Vraiment Droit]

Please forgive my Quebecois ways. English does not have the built in redundancies of my own tongue but I write in it as if it did, and it comes out not so quite right.

[heller]

That's fine, as long as you don't visit this thread:

[BakedPenguin]

C'est rein. Tout va bein.

[BakedPenguin]

Merde. Tout va bien, ? l'exception de ma orthographe.

[heller]

That's hilarious. You win.

[jtuf]

That's nothing. You should see how many racists voted for Obama just so they could brag about voting for a Black man.

[Ken Shultz]

Just for the record?

I suspect the Giants winning the World Series may auger well for Meg Whitman tomorrow, what with a disproportionate number of the people of San Francisco maybe being too hung over to get up early and vote.

Hey, I can dream!

Fact is, seeing the despicable Giants win the Series and then Governor Moonbeam take the state--all within 24 hours? That would be a little too much misery for my tender sensibilities to process.

The G-nats or Governor Moonbeam? I honestly don't know who I despise more!

Someday this nightmare will be over.

[sloopyinca]

Giants win! Giants win! Giants win! Giants win!

Fuck, it's a great day to be a Giants fan! Oh there's an election tomorrow? I'm gonna get out and vote, but my hopes for a GOP demolition of the Dems may not happen and Prop 19 may not pass. Aw, fuck it. There are things more important than politics.

BTW, Prop 19 will fail because of the fuckface Dems that oppose it. There are as many conservative Californians that will vote for it, which is all the more reason to spit on every Dem candidate and pollster out there tomorrow. Fuck them up the ass for killing Prop 19 just to secure a victory tomorrow.

Who am I kidding. I'm drunk anyway.

[TJ McSmartAss]

VOTE EARLY, VOTE OFTEN

[Max]

Preditions:
1. Enough Tea Party wingnuts will get ellected bto ensure a Democratic victory in 2012.

2. Reason will get enough donations to stay afloat.

3. Jesse Walker will admit he's a rat-fucker leftists and go to work for MSNBC.

4. Nick Gillespie will finally pull the copy of Atlas Shrugged out of his ass and realize that he doesn't even like leather.

[prolefeed]

Microwave popcorn:

Put bag and troll in microwave. Cook until screams subside. Enjoy!

[Episiarch]

5. Edward's impotent rage metastasizes enough to give him a tumor, a la The Brood.

6. Even the tumor is not enough to get his mom to let him out of the basement.

[Mr. FIFY]

7. Max's Mom runs out of Hello Kitty vibrator batteries, scavenges AAs out of Max's VCR remote, then feels guilty about it and bakes Max three dozen snickerdoodles.

[Alex]

Don't waste all of your anger tonight. Save some for tomorrow.

[Max]

8. Moronic libertoids will continue to come up with only lame responses to clever trolls.

[Episiarch]

9. Edward will hilariously refer to himself as "clever". This will provide us with an amazing level of amusement.

[Hugh Akston]

Our last good troll stomped and stomped until the earth opened up and swallowed him after Obama proved to be every bit as misanthropic as his predecessor.

You're just a worthless lump of crap.

[Wind Rider]

8. Moronic libertoids Pithy H&R commentors will continue to come up with only lame responses to wait for clever trolls, but be disappointed, yet again.

[sloopyinca]

Haha, righto. Where have all the good trolls gone anyway. I can remember back to my lurming days when the original Max and Chony used to regale us with their nonsensical rants that could build threads into the triple digits. Alas, we are left with mere impotent facsimiles of the glorious trolls of the early Obama administration where their expectations were for the world to open up and swallow those that oppose the true One and the streams would flow with (raw) milk and honey.

These guys have become disenfranchised to the point of spouting anti-Bush and -Palin talking-points at us if we're on HotAir or something. It's laughable. Haha.

[Hugh Akston]

Back in my day we had real trolls like joe and Lonewhacko, who would descend upon any issue with reality-challenged partisan spin or axe-grinding myopia (respectively).

I've heard legends of uber-trolls like Dan T. and DONDEROOOOOOOOOO! who would tell you what was what, who was who, and where Guiliani liked to be touched but would never admit.

The current likes of Max/Edward/Lefiti, juanita, and Shannon Love are all pale shadows in comparison to the trolls of old.

[sloopyinca]

What's the name of that retarded chick who came on here up until recently with her gibberish about how humans were a virus and population control would balance the earth's desire to "allow" man to remain here?

She was worth a few minutes time if only to get her worked up into a tizzy to the point of self-abasement for our collective amusement. For the life of me, I can't remember her name although I'm pretty sure it ended in "gal" or "girl." Fuck me, I wish I could remember. A little help here?

[sloopyinca]

Dammit. It was Organic Gal, wasn't it? I was too quick on the draw there, kinda like my sex life.

[wingnutx]

Organic Girl was it.

[Nor West]

...sigh... I miss joe...

[Chronos]

He was thrown into the Abyss for a reason. Those horrible sentiments you express are an insult to the space-time continuum itself.

[[e-mail]]

When the Republicans are back in power, I will return.

[Tman]

Drinking With Bob on the Jon Stewart Rally and the Tea Party.

Also, one of my favorites so far....

How The Left Will Spin the Election Results

Your progressive tears, they taste so......LIBERATING.

[Max]

Don't let the dust from the sudt bin of history get in your eyes. Universal health care will be as American as apple pie and civil rights. Go fuck yourself.

[sloopyinca]

Universal Care will have more in common with the Dodo bird than apple pie in a year or so.

Max, go to bed.

5. Obama handles Republicunts with deft hand over the next two years. Goes on to herald a new age of peace and prosperity. Libertardians live in huts without electricity and no roadways in their settlements in New Hampshire. Freeze to death in the first year.

[capitol l]

That sounds cool man. Great idea!

[John Thacker]

Obama handles Republicunts with deft hand over the next two years. Goes on to herald a new age of peace and prosperity.

So he'll be going along with cutting spending and capital gains tax cuts like Clinton then? Good times.

[Max's Mom]

Honey, have you seen my Hello Kitty vibrator?

[voxpo]

Election Day riots are impressive and all, but they must pale in comparison to the damages summoned by election results.

[jtuf]

In related news, Socialist are complaining that Dilma Rousseff won the Brazilian presidential elections and will implement more Capitalist policies. It's worth noting that the Worker's Party there is more Capitalist than the Brazilian Social Democrat Party.

[CoyoteBlue]

What I need is some voting day music.
All I can think of is Leonard Cohen's "Democracy." But it doesn't quite have the right vibe for today.

[Rich]

How about this?

[UU]

10. Nothing will change about government.

[rhea]

The economic issues facing the nation will not be solved by more partisan gridlock. 85-90% of every federal budget goes to 4 items (Military, SS, Medicare, interest). Neither Democrats nor Republicans have been able to reduce the debt or the deficit. Republican presidents have added even more debt than Democratic presidents. If the 2 parties can't work together, these problems simply won't be solved. Electing a bunch of extremists who talk about death panels and socialist takeovers will make partisan bickering and gridlock worse, not better.
